OSVR HDK Unboxing

So I finally got my hands on the OSVR headset from Razer. I’m not going to lie, it took its sweet time getting here (about 2 months more than the initially projected date) but the sheer degree of awesome that is possessed by a VR headset helped negate all my irritation from the delay.

In other words, I was squealing like a child when I picked it up and began the unboxing. I hope my excitement translates to you, gentle reader!

About now is when the squealing reached supersonic levels.

The HDK itself seems to be divided into:

The headset

HDMI cables for the headset

Some sort of audio cables that I haven’t yet figured out how to use

The power supply

The positional tracking kit (i.e. the Camera, a tripod stand and relevant cabling)

A cleaning brush

A hub for all the cables to connect into

And there you have it!
